I'm about 3 1/2 days into conversion. Water has gone from murky green to light blue and is finally not loosing a ton of FC between testing . Pics will be posted when I get closer to finish line.

My question is I have left my ladder in the pool during the conversion (stair style, not solid, has "vent holes" to allow water to pass thru back). Should I take it out and scrub it down, or can it stay in where it's been in there for the whole process?

Good question. I think it makes sense to take it out and clean it pretty good when the conversion is done. Just the shock level of the chlorine will probably be enough but a little insurance is always good.

Of course, I'm not the one having to do the work so it's easy for me to say!
